Emails will not be recorded. My personal statement is below,
Hi, guys, it's Doses here. I'll make this complicated situation straight and to the point. The UMR's democracy has failed. No one can agree on anything, the founding vision (at least for the foreseeable future) is dead to most of the population, and the government nearly collapsed when I threatened to step down as supervisor; meaning when I threatened to leave so did everyone else. This amendment is pretty simple, in true Emperor Palpatine spirit this will completely dissolve the government and make me dictator for the foreseeable future. As the founder of the United Memers of Reddit trust me when I say that this is not how I wanted things to turn out, believe it or not the guy who made a democratic subreddit isn't really a fan of it becoming a dictatorship, but right now I don't see any other option. If the UMR is left in its current state then it is doomed and based on the poll about this I put on the sub almost 75% of people agree. A stronger man might've just let this place have a quiet and peaceful death. I wish I was that man, but I'm not. I can't let it all be for nothing. I and many others have invested over a year of our lives into this place and It can't just go down in history as a failed experiment, I won't let it. I will either revive it as myself as Emperor, or we shall go out with a boom. However I will not take this power, I will have it given to me or I will not have it at all.
What will change under this new administration? Basically for those of you who were here back then, we will go back to the old days of me being completely in charge but with a close group of advisors. The main goal will be expansion by experimenting with reviving dead subs and participating in meme wars with subs who are open to it. Current member subs will be allowed to leave if they wish and will not be required to stay however I hope that they wait and give this new UMR a chance. Hopefully, we can grow, form a new audience, and hopefully, one-day democracy can be restored.
That's about it I guess. Might as well embrace my likely new role as emperor so here's my speech, enjoy:
Citizens of civilized Reddit, on this day we mark a transition. For a over a year, the United Memers of Reddit stood as the crowning achievement of civilized redditors. But there were those who would set us against one another, and we took to the keyboards to defend our way of life against these cynics. In doing so, we never suspected that the greatest threat came from within.
The people, and many within our own Senate, had conspired to create the shadow of cynicism using one of their own as the enemy's leader. They had hoped to grind the United Memers of Reddit into ruin. But the cynicism in their hearts could not be hidden forever. At last, there came a day when our enemies showed their true natures.
These senators hoped to unleash their destructive power against the UMR by destoying the very ideals and vision that made us great and usurping control of the meme army. But the aims of the would-be tyrants were valiantly opposed by those without elitist, dangerous powers. Our loyal meme troopers contained the insurrection within us and quelled uprisings on many member subreddits.
The remaining cynics will be hunted down and defeated. Any collaborators will suffer the same fate. These have been trying times, but we have passed the test.
The attempt on my subreddit has left me sad and depressed, but I assure you my resolve has never been stronger! The war is over. The cynics have been defeated, and the collapse of our government has been foiled. We stand on the threshold of a new beginning.
In order to ensure the security and continuing stability, the United Memers of Reddit will be reorganized into the first United Meme Empire*, for a safe and secure society, which I assure you will last for 10,000 years (aka maybe a year or so in Reddit time, idk we'll see). An Empire that will continue to be ruled by this august body and a sovereign ruler chosen for life. An Empire ruled by the majority, ruled by a new constitution.*By bringing the entire galaxy under one law, one language, and the enlightened guidance of one individual, the corruption that plagued our Republic in its later years will never take root. Regional governors will eliminate the bureaucracy that allowed the cynical movement to grow unchecked. A strong and growing military will ensure the rule of law.
Under our Empire's New Order, our most cherished beliefs will be safeguarded. We will defend our ideals by force of arms. We will give no ground to our enemies and we will stand together against attacks from with or without. Let the enemies of the Empire take heed: Those who challenge Imperial resolve will be crushed.
We have taken on a task that will be difficult, but the people of the Empire are ready for the challenge. Because of our efforts, the galaxy has traded division for unity and anarchy for stability. Billions of memers now look forward to a secure future. The Empire will grow as more subreddits feel the call, from small and dead subreddits yet to be revived to large and powerful meme communities.
Imperial citizens must do their part. Join our grand meme military. Become the eyes of the Empire by reporting suspected insurrectionists. Travel to the corners of the reddit to spread the principles of the New Order to barbarians. Build monuments and technical wonders that will speak of our glory for generations to come.
The meme troopers, and proudly wearing the name of Imperial memetroopers, have tackled the dangerous work of fighting our enemies on the front lines. Many accounts have died in their devotion to the Empire. Imperial citizens would do well to remember their example.
The New Order of peace has triumphed over the shadowy secrecy of shamful cynics. The direction of our course is clear. I will lead the Empire to glories beyond imagination.
We have been tested, but we have emerged stronger. We moved forward as one people - the Imperial citizens of the first United Meme Empire. We will prevail. Ten thousand years of peace begins today.

You will be missed.
F
I can't stand to see this place die so I can't stay anyways
It was fun while it lasted but people aren't trying to fix it they're trying to kill it further
I'm out loser's
So I'm leaving here. The sub is going to die, but the way they plan to kill it isn't something I'd like to see happen.
I've tried very hard to revive this place, but if nobody works with you it's impossible.
Making this post is sad, but not as sad as staying.
So that's it. See ya!
I'll miss this place.

Itโs sad to see it in its current state but i guess everything is temporary? It seems meme alliances and meme wars are over/a thing of the past? Maybe maybe itโs just cause Iโm not in the discord but it seems the subreddit is dead
